Broccolini with Gochugaru Chile Flakes

Brighten up some broccolini with garlic and gochugaru chile flakes.

Ingredients

2 bunches broccolini, rinsed and trimmed of tough ends 
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced 
¾ tsp Gochugaru Chile Flakes
1-2 tbsp olive oil 
salt, to taste 
lemon juice, to taste 

For the Assembly

1. Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Blanch the broccolini in the boiling water until the vegetables turn bright green and start to become tender, about 3-5 minutes. Remove with tongs and rinse with cold water. Set aside. 

2. In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and gochugaru chile flakes and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the blanched broccolini and increase the heat to high. Toss to coat the broccolini in the chile-garlic oil and salt to taste. Sauté until the broccolini florets start to brown, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer to a platter and squeeze over fresh lemon juice, to taste.
